ByMike Regalado

After their 35-31 win over Colorado, the UCLA Football team moved up to #22 in this week’s AP Top 25 Poll.

After a wild and wacky Halloween scare against the Colorado Buffaloes, the UCLA Football team was able to pull out the win and go 6-2 on the season. With that, the Bruins move up 2 spots to #22 in the latest AP Top 25 Poll.

Though it was not an impressive win, it was an impressive finish by the Bruins as they managed to fight off a Colorado comeback (for the second year in a row) and get the much needed sixth victory to become bowl eligible.

With this win, UCLA Football remains one game back of the Utah Utes in the Pac-12 South Division as they beat the Bruin’s next opponent, Oregon State, 27-12.

As for the rest of the Pac-12 in the AP Poll, Stanford moves down one spot to #9 (flipping spots with Notre Dame) after they nearly had a Halloween scare of their own against Washington State.

With no one else losing in front of them in the Top 25, Utah remains at #13.

There was no other movement in the Pac-12. USC, despite beating Cal for the 12th straight year with a 27-21 victory, once again did not re-enter the Top 25.

The Bruins next play the aforementioned Oregon State Beavers on Saturday, November 7 at 1:30 p.m.
